  == Known problems ==
  
-  * Chromium fail to work when it is set to use automatic proxy configuration and no wpad.dat is found on a network where proxy use is required, making it some times fail to work on standalone and roaming workstations when the machines are moved outside the backbone network.
+  * Using KDE on standalone and roaming workstations, at least Konqueror, Chromium and Step fail to work out-of-the box when the machines are used outside the backbone network, proxy use is required to use the other network but no wpad.dat information is found.
   * manual:
     * three FIXMEs (about Windows clients)
     * one screenshot still needs to be updated to the green joy theme

   * Booting a diskless workstation is slow, and logging in take a long time (>60 seconds) if KDE is used. Will it handle a class room? (Xfce and LXDE sessions start up time is about 25 seconds.) - Workaround: Boot computers before pupils enter the classroom.
  
   * apt-get update fetches translation updates for several languages despite I just want German / my language

- == Probably fixed ==
-  * KDE applications (at least konqueror and step) do not use the proxy by default, and automatic proxy configuration do not work, making these tools useless on a network where proxy use is required.  Looks like KDE do not understand our wpad.dat file? (If KDE is pointed to the correct URL, wpad.dat is understood and used; so it seems that KDE can't find the file using the DNS method.)
